Part 1

 1. What is your reaction to his work? His work is very unique, its kind of hard to explain.
2. How do you think he made these photos? I think he took pictures of different buildings and then photo shop them to make them look like the way they do.
3 Think about some buildings you have seen, which ones would be good to take a photo like this? The Capital, The Frost Building.

 Tell me about those buildings, where are they, could you get easy access to them? The buildings are obviously tall, big buildings, A lot of windows, In downtown.

National Geographic photos and Ethics in Photography

This is my favorite photo because, first of all i like pictures of islands and i like how detailed it is and how clear the water is. I also how the picture has the sun reflecting off of the water. That makes the picture look even better.

Touching People

 

1. What do you think about this project and photo essay? I like it, only because if there's a stranger around or someone i just don't know but see them a lot i will go make conversation and get to know them.

2. What would you do if someone approached you with a camera and asked you to participate in a photo shoot and then asked you to touch a stranger? The only thing that would creep me out a bit is the whole touching somebody part of the photo shoot. But i would still do it i wouldn't mind to much.

3. Think of an unusual photo shoot similar to this one that you think would be fun to go and shoot. A photo shoot that would be similar to this one that i would do would be to ask people to stand next to each other and ask them to make a straight face but make your body form a shape on how you feel inside explaining if your hurt,happy,sad or anything like that.

4. Finally, tell me what you thought of the photography, are the photos good? Do you like looking at them? yes i do like them a lot, you can look at most of the photos and it's telling you what's happening or what the feeling is in the photos.

The Camera

1. Explain the “camera obscura” effect. How is it achieved? Which is Latin for "dark room". This was the first camera. The hole acted like a lens, focusing and projecting light onto the wall of the dark chamber.

2. What invention during the 17th Century helped man get a step closer to creating the modern camera? Isaac Newton and Christian Huygens perfected the understanding of optics and the process of making high quality glass lenses.

3. What were the parts of the first modern camera invented by Niepce? A glass lens, a dark box, and film.

4.What do modern digital cameras have in common with Niepce’s camera? New cameras are very easy to use, just point and shoot. The camera's built-in computer handles focus and exposure so you don't have to.

5. What do digital cameras use to capture an image? Light passes through the lens, into the camera, and exposes the film. And guess what? The end result is still a photograph.

Camera Modes

6. What is the difference between the Auto Mode and the Program mode? Of all the shooting modes, Auto/Program is probably the most useful. Most people don't really want to learn about how a camera works, and point and shoot photography is the perfect solution.

The fully automatic (A)uto or (P)rogram mode is the default for most modern cameras. The photographer can simply aim, press the button, and almost be guaranteed a great image.

7. What is the Portrait mode used for? How does it work? To attempt to blur out the background, camera will try to use the fastest available lens setting (aperture).

8. What is the Sports mode used for? (not just sports) How does it work? To freeze motion, camera will use the highest shutter speed possible. 

 The Half Press

9. Why should you do a half press on the trigger button? Focus Lock and Faster Full Press Response.

Controlling Flash

10. What does this symbol mean?  no flash. There are many cases where you may not want flash at all. The mood of the photograph can sometimes be more dramatic when the natural light is used.

  11.What does this symbol mean? In most camera modes, Auto-flash is enabled by default and will automatically fire if the camera thinks it needs more light.

Introduction Exposure

12. What happens to your photo if there is too much light? Too much light and the picture will be washed out.

13. What happens to your photo if there is not enough light? Not enough light and the picture will be too dark.

The Universal Stop

14. What is a “stop.” The term "stop" is used in every aspect of photography to represent a relative change in the brightness of light.

15. How many stops brighter is the new planet if there are two sons instead of one? 1

 16. How many stops brighter is the new planet if there are four sons instead of two? (Hint: the “show answer” feature is wrong). 2

Shutters & Arparture

17. What affect does a longer shutter speed of have? More Light

18. What affect does a shorter shutter speed have? Less Light

19. What does the aperture control? Before light reaches film, it must pass through an opening called an "Aperture". The aperture is like a pupil. You can control the aperture by setting the "Aperture Opening", also known as an F-Stop.

20. When adjusting the aperture, how can you increase the amount of light? It does so by closing up to restrict light, and opening up to let it through.

 Exposure - The act or an instance of exposing

Depth of field - The distance between the nearest and farthest objects in a scene that appear Acceptably sharp in an image

F-stop - An optical system is the ratio of the lens focal length to the diameter of the entrance pupil. It is a dimentionles number that is a quantitative measure of lens speed, an important concept in photogerfer.

Focal length - The distance between the center of a lens or curved mirror and its focus.

Single-lens- reflex (SLR) camera is a camera that typically uses a semi-automatic moving mirror System that permits the photographer

Half court press - near the basket before applying strong defensive pressure.

WAD UP!

I really like this photo because it's very detailed,

It also stands out. Out of all the pictures i have took of this guy, 

Adam Bondoc this came out the best.

Sadly to say this photo is the worst out of all of them.

Only because it doesn't look as detailed as the others & as clear. 

But overall it isn't as bad.
